Abstract

The two-dimensional flow of a viscous nanofluid is investigated. The flow is caused by a nonlinear stretching surface with the slip effects of the velocity, the temperature, and the concentration. The fluid is electrically conducted in the presence of an applied magnetic field. Appropriate transformations reduce the nonlinear partial differential system to an ordinary differential system. The convergent solutions of the governing nonlinear problems are computed. The results of the velocity, the temperature, and the concentration fields are calculated in series forms. The effects of the different parameters on the velocity, the temperature, and the concentration profiles are shown and analyzed. The skin friction coefficient, the Nusselt number, and the Sherwood number are also computed and investigated for different embedded parameters in the problem statements.
